Zucchini fritters …. مشاط او عجة الكوسا

This is an easy quick and delicious recipe for lunch or snack especially when zucchini is in season.

Ingredients:

2 big or 4 medium zucchini grated

1 tsp salt

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 egg beaten

1 garlic crushed

1/4 cup scallions finely diced

1/2 tsp cumin powder (optional)

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

4 tbs olive oil for frying

Pita bread and lemon wedges for serving
Method:

Place the shredded zucchini in a colander set over a bowl and sprinkle the zucchini lightly with salt. Allow the zucchini to stand for 10 minutes. Using your hands, squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible.

Transfer the zucchini to a large bowl.

Add the flour, eggs, scallions, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin and red pepper (if used) to the bowl, stirring until the mixture is combined. Line a plate with paper towels.

Add the olive oil to large sauté pan set over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop 1 tablespoon mounds of the zucchini mixture into the pan, (or 2 tbs depends how big in diameter you want the fritters) pressing them lightly into rounds and spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Cook the zucchini fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them once and cook an additional 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked throughout. Transfer the zucchini fritters to the paper towel-lined plate.

Repeat the scooping and cooking process with the remaining zucchini mixture.
